Answer

As of April 8th, 2014 Microsoft will no longer be supporting Windows XP or Office 2003. This means, there will be no new security updates, non-security hotfixes available via Windows Updates from Microsoft for the above listed products. See: Windows XP SP3 and Office 2003 Support Ends April 8th, 2014

When a LanGuard scan is run against these products, there will be no updates

Oval and CVE Vulnerabilities will still be found and reported on

Any 3rd party software will still be scanned and that software can be patched via GFI LanGuard
